If you're gonna book someone for diving, make sure it's a dive, you plank.

 

[rascal]

That was a pen but had to laugh at the commentator saying Aguero isn't renowned for his diving lol

 

[wandyr79]

Awful decision, never seen Aguero dive once so not even a reputation yellow.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Thanks ref, that's my fantasy captain

 

[moyeslovechild]

i swear half the yellows handed out for diving are wrong or borderline fouls

He's not ?

 

[Brennan]

City should win comfortably here. Southampton aren't all that.

 

[toffeejack]

decision is shocking. why do refs only book "dives" when it's in the pen box? things like that, you can introduce TV replays for. that's not slowing the game down, it's either a free kick one way and a yellow or it's a pen. i know there are instances where you can play on, but ref's don't play on much these days anyway.

 

[zirc]

I don't know if I've ever seen a more 100% certain pen than that. Unbelievable. I don't have Aguero in fantasy though so lol.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Linesman could have a word too. It was blatant

 

[Seamus Colemole]

He was clearly looking for it, was starting to go down before minimal contact, and the way he threw his arms in the air and performed a swan dive to the ground meant it was a dive.

Give him a 3 match ban for that to stamp out cheating.

Oh, and of that had been at the Etihad they definatly would have got the pen. A 2 sounthampton players sent off.

 

[The Hibbert Agenda]

look at saints' bench, very weak. do they have any injuries?

They're missing Ward-Prowse and Jay Rodriguez. Both good players. Ward-Prowse possibly has the best set-piece ability in the league.

Apart from Luke Garbutt.

Okay. If he didn't do what you say he did...Fonte is still taking him out and getting nowhere near the ball.

Can't get anymore stonewall than that.
